Additional Notes

  • The Brabus E 5.8 covers model years 1997-2002 and carries an automatic transmission fluid capacity of 8.6 liters under normal use conditions.
  • The EV 12 and TV 12 configurations, both spanning 1993-2000, share an identical automatic transmission fluid capacity of 8.2 liters under normal use conditions.
  • The 0.4-liter difference between the E 5.8 at 8.6 liters and the EV 12 and TV 12 at 8.2 liters reflects a variation tied to engine configuration rather than model year overlap.
  • Capacities in the 8.2-8.6 liter range are characteristic of a full service fill, meaning the figure accounts for fluid retained within the torque converter and transmission housing together, not just the pan drain volume.
